International Growth And Human Resource Management Challenges: A Review Of Hewlett-Packards Efforts To Maintain The HP Way

Abstract

This case is about Hewlett-Packard, its culture, and the problems the company encountered as it made a journey from a domestic firm to an international organization. The case discusses how the culture was created, developed, and perhaps lost during the company battle to stay in the top of the computer, test and measurement instrument markets. This case discusses the national and international challenges that HP has to deal with and the changes the company has to make in order to save the HP way.
